Default RE: Quattro huh? Who says we can't get stuck

Kind of tough to see, but it did not look like the A6 front wheels were spinning. He did a good job of spinning the rears until the ground under the tires was nice and icey and slippery. It's also tough to get out while turning the front wheels - you have to establish some forward motion first and then steer out. I'll also bet he had summer tires.

I'vedrivenxmyA6after 8-9" storms before the streets were plowed. Not only does mine go through snow better than any other vehicle I've ever had (including a couple CJ7's, one with 35" mud tires), but it takes a little work to break it loose and make it fishtail.

I wouldn't be pushing anyone out with my A6 I can promise you that. I can't imagine the spiderwebbed paint on both of those bumpers after that little ordeal.

If anything, use the tow hooks on each vehicle and PULL it out, but even that I would probably avoid at all costs.

Real genius at work in this clip. Firstly, as stated above, the kid had the wheels to the left or right depending on when/where/what the camera-man was shooting. Secondly he wasn't shifting forward and back to rock the car out.

Was this his first time driving in the snow?

At least their jackets were cool.

Quattro doesn't help you if your running summer tires...I've been running Michelin Pilot Alpins for winter and trust me, there's a huge difference.

ESP = Electronic Stablility Program

It was a standard feature on A6's starting in '01.
